As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness. Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation.
The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below. If no one has stepped forward before that time to propose a way to fix the problems (such as via a PR), the ports will be deleted. portname: audio/ecawave description: Simple graphical audio file editor maintainer: syl...@freebsd.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: has been broken for over one year expiration date: 2011-02-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=audio&portname=ecawave portname: audio/libjackasyn description: Allow use any sound program for the OSS system as a JACK client maintainer: a...@freebsd.org deprecated because: development has ceased; try audio/jack instead expiration date: 2011-02-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=audio&portname=libjackasyn portname: audio/xmms-jackasyn description: XMMS plugin for jack using libjackasyn maintainer: a...@freebsd.org deprecated because: development has ceased; try audio/xmms-jack instead expiration date: 2011-02-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=audio&portname=xmms-jackasyn portname: chinese/unrar description: Extract, view & test RAR archives maintainer: po...@freebsd.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: constantly behind master and no maintainer expiration date: 2011-02-20 build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/amd64-errorlogs/e.7.20110119082704/zh-unrar-4.00.b4,5.log (_Jan_20_07:19:11_UTC_2011) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=chinese&portname=unrar portname: databases/qt-ibase-plugin description: A plugin for QT to connect to IBase/Firebird-Databases maintainer: k...@freebsd.org deprecated because: Port is broken on all supported versions of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=qt-ibase-plugin portname: devel/ace+tao description: The Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) with The ACE ORB (TAO) maintainer: po...@freebsd.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Outdated and does not compile on any supported version of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=ace%2Btao portname: devel/root description: An Object-Oriented Data Analysis Framework maintainer: si...@lang-clan.de status: BROKEN deprecated because: Port does not build on supported versions of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-20 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=root portname: devel/thistest description: A Java unit testing framework maintainer: alepul...@freebsd.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: development has ceased; website disappeared expiration date: 2011-04-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=thistest portname: dns/bind94 description: The BIND DNS suite with updated DNSSEC and threads maintainer: do...@freebsd.org deprecated because: Reaches EOL May 2011 expiration date: 2011-05-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=dns&portname=bind94 portname: dns/bind94-geoip description: The BIND DNS suite with updated DNSSEC and threads maintainer: do...@freebsd.org deprecated because: Reaches EOL May 2011 expiration date: 2011-05-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=dns&portname=bind94-geoip portname: dns/staticcharge description: A GTK client for the StaticCling dynamic DNS service maintainer: po...@freebsd.org deprecated because: abandoned by author expiration date: 2011-01-24 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=dns&portname=staticcharge portname: emulators/xmamegui description: SDLMAME frontend that has been written using Java maintainer: alepul...@freebsd.org deprecated because: development has ceased; try emulators/qmc2 instead expiration date: 2011-04-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=emulators&portname=xmamegui portname: games/airrox description: An 3D Air Hockey, which uses SDL & OpenGL maintainer: alepul...@freebsd.org deprecated because: development has ceased expiration date: 2011-04-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=games&portname=airrox portname: games/bfm description: Battle for Mandicor is free RTS fantasy game using Stratagus maintainer: alepul...@freebsd.org deprecated because: development has ceased; website disappeared expiration date: 2011-04-11 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=games&portname=bfm portname: games/xracer description: Awesome WipeOut clone for OpenGL and X11!
